Chapter 1: Cornered
"Brother, why don't we go home, it's gone." On the hospital bed, a little girl said to the man sitting on the edge of the hospital bed.
The little girl's hair has fallen out because of chemotherapy, so she wears a hat, although her facial features are beautiful, but she has a sickly whiteness, but her eyes are still bright, and it makes people feel distressed to watch.
Shen Tian patted the little girl's forehead lightly, and said gently: "Don't worry, my brother still has money, you can treat it with peace of mind, and my brother will come to see you every week." Shen Tian said, tears were already rolling in his eyes, but he held back.
The little girl's name is Shen Yi, and she is Shen Tian's only relative in this world, but Shen Yi, who is twelve or thirteen years old this year, was tested for white blood half a year ago, and a girl so young suffers from psychological and chemotherapy pain every day.
In order to treat Shen Yi's illness, Shen Tian has borrowed all the money he can borrow, and the relationship with his wife's family has deteriorated sharply.
Just now, he was also given a final notice by the hospital, saying that he would be forced to go through the discharge procedures if he couldn't pay the hospitalization fee, and the sensible Shen Yi said to Shen Tian that he didn't want to continue treatment after knowing the situation.
"Yiyi, you play with other children in the hospital first, and my brother goes to get the money." Shen Tian said, afraid that he would cry, so he hurriedly trotted out of the ward.
"Brother, come back soon, I'll have to wait to play with you." Shen Yi blinked playfully and said innocently.
Ignoring the people coming and going in the hospital, as soon as Shen Tian left the door of the ward, he buried his head in his arms, squatted on the ground and cried silently.
In order to treat the disease, Shen Tian even sold all the houses in the countryside, but he could barely afford several chemotherapy treatments, and he had to transplant bone marrow in the future, which was not something he could afford at all.
After a long time, Shen Tian wiped his tears, dialed his wife's phone, the phone was connected, Shen Tian wiped his tears, and said, "Can you lend me 50,000?" The last fifty thousand. ”
"Shen Tian, you also know the reason why you were asked to marry into my family in the first place, but it is to use each other, I have no objection to you treating your sister, after all, it is your relative, but don't you treat my family as an ATM, when you come to this family, you borrow money in addition to borrowing money, what you have done for your family will only make me embarrassed."
Shen Tian's wife's name is Yunle, the first beauty in Luocheng City, who agreed to marry Shen Tian at the beginning, completely to fulfill the marriage contract made by his grandfather, otherwise he would be infamous for being unfilial. And Shen Tian was willing to join the family in order to get the bride price and treat his sister.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the relationship between the two is to use each other.
In the past two years of marriage, Shen Tian has been sleeping in a separate room with Yun Le, and he has never even held his hand, more like a stranger sleeping under the same roof, and there is only one reason for all this, that is, Yun Le does not like Shen Tian, and Shen Tian works hard at home every day, no matter how big or small the work at home is done by him alone, and he is even more obedient to the words of the Yun family, and has never complained.
"Yunle, the last fifty thousand," Shen Tian was just halfway through his words when the phone was hung up.
Shen Tian was trembling holding his mobile phone, could his sister only be tortured to death by illness? Looking at his sister who was talking and laughing with the children on the side through the window, Shen Tian's heart was like a knife.
Just when he was helpless, Shen Tian seemed to think of something, and took out a small jade gourd from his neck, and painted this pattern that Shen Tian couldn't understand, which was given to him by Shen Tian's grandfather when he died, and he had been wearing it on his body, if he sold this, he should be able to exchange it for a lot of money.
Thinking of this, Shen Tian got on his bicycle and went straight to the antique market, but the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes, and no one was willing to buy this gourd after running several stores in a row, because this gourd was not jade.
Shen Tian was desperate in his heart, squatting on the bridge alone, looking at the flowing river, Shen Tian really wanted to die, but he didn't have the courage, because his sister was still lying on the hospital bed alone.
At this time, a Mercedes-Benz stopped behind Shen Tian, Shen Tian turned his head to look, found that he didn't recognize the car, and turned his head again.
The Mercedes-Benz window rolled down, and a girl poked her head out of the co-pilot and said to Shen Tian: "Isn't this Shen Tian, why is it here alone, watching the scenery?" ”
The girl spoke with a bit of yin and yang, and Shen Tian turned to look, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes.
Of course this girl Shen Tian knew, it was his college classmate Wang Ruo, who was a girl at the school flower level, but she had a soft spot for Shen Tian, and she once confessed to Shen Tian in front of all the teachers and students in the school, but was rejected by Shen Tian, who had low self-esteem at that time, and since then, Shen Tian has never seen her again, and I don't know where she went.
Goodbye now, Wang Ruo is still as beautiful as she was at the beginning, but she is less pure than at the beginning, and a little more mature and charming.
"Is it Wang Ruo, long time no see." Shen Tian said hello politely.
"Hehe, of course I haven't seen you for a long time, I heard that you became a son-in-law? You're really promising. Wang Ruo's words were thorny, and his love for Shen turned into hatred when he was in college.
After Wang Ruo was rejected by Shen Tian, he became the laughing stock of the whole school, and Wang Ruo, who was unbearable for gossip, dropped out of school, and later went to a bar as a barmaid, and later met her current boyfriend.
Shen Tian smiled awkwardly, seemed to have made a lot of determination, took a deep breath, and said, "Wang Ruo, can you lend me 50,000 yuan?" I'll pay you back. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Tian felt that his face was hot, and he had already put down his dignity for his sister.
Wang Ruo laughed a few times, laughing very happily, at this time, the Mercedes-Benz door opened, and Wang Ruo and the three men got out of the car.
"You're the one who rejected my wife in the first place?" A man dressed in black mink with a large gold chain around his neck spoke.
Shen Tian didn't know what to say, and the mink man continued: "What? If you want to borrow 50,000 yuan, you are so poor and sour, what will you pay back? Or did you rely on my girlfriend to like you before, wanted to empty gloves and white wolves, took the money and ran away? The mink man said, reaching out and patting Shen Tian on the face a few times, and Shen Tian took two steps back.
"No, I'm sure I'll pay it back, I'm here to treat my sister, I'll pay it back to Wang Ruo." Shen Tian hurriedly explained.
Wang Ruo sneered and said, "A thousand yuan for a slap, can you borrow it?" ”
Originally, I saw Shen Tian standing alone at the bridge, and he stopped the car just so that his boyfriend could take out the bad breath he had back then.
Shen Tian looked at Wang Ruo's familiar and unfamiliar face, he knew that he was hated by Wang Ruo in his heart, listening to such insulting words, Shen Tian clenched his teeth and clenched his fists, but when he thought of his sister lying on the hospital bed, he released his fist again.
"If you can lend me fifty thousand, I'll let you fight." Shen Tian really let go of his dignity at this time, compared to his sister's life, his dignity seemed insignificant.
As soon as Shen Tian's words came out, Wang Ruo and several men laughed, and the mink man took out 50,000 yuan from his bag and threw it on the hood of the Mercedes-Benz.
"Shen Ting, Shen Tian, I was really blind and would have taken a fancy to you." Wang Ruo said, and slapped Shen Tian in the face.
Shen Tian didn't dodge, just closed his eyes and felt the pain on his face.
"What about your dignity?" Said another slap in the face.
"Where's your coldness?" Another slap in the face.
"Do you know how much I've endured?" Another slap in the face.
There was a lot of traffic on the bridge, and many people saw this scene, and they all slowed down and recorded a video with their mobile phones, but no one came down to stop them.
I don't know how long it took, Wang Ruo finally stopped, panting and said: "It's really enjoyable, haha, you really will surprise me, I didn't expect to let me meet you here." ”
The mink man stretched out his hand to hug Wang Ruo, said that he had worked hard baby, and said to Shen Tian: "Take 50,000 yuan, remember to pay it back, haha." ”
"I'll pay it back." Shen Tian said, regardless of the pain on his face, he was about to get the money on the hood, but he was stopped by the mink man.
"Wait, get it from here." The mink man pointed to his crotch and sneered.
At this moment, Shen Tian really broke out, the other party obviously didn't want to lend him money from the beginning, but he was played like a monkey by them.
"What bastards you are." With that, he pushed the mink man, who was defenseless and was suddenly pushed to the hood.
"Damn, beat me to death." At the behest of the mink man, the other two men took out the steel pipe directly from the car.
Shen Tian was just an ordinary college student, where was the opponent of several people, he was directly pressed to the ground, and then there was a burst of random beatings.
The blood flowed down his head, down his neck, and onto the gourd that Grandpa Shen had left for him.
The moment before Shen Tian fainted, he felt a heat in his neck.
The strange pattern on the gourd began to spin and then crack after being stained with Shen Ting's blood. A gentle white aura entered Shen Tian's body.
An unfamiliar voice sounded in Shen Tian's mind: "Today, I have learned all my life, and I will pass on the eleven needles and needles of your life, I hope you will solve the suffering of the world and fight ghosts and monsters." ”
